Detailed Description
The inventor of the invention provides a novel LED fluorescent lamp based on a glass lamp tube through creative work to solve the problems mentioned in the background technology and the problems.
In order to make the aforementioned objects, features and advantages of the present invention comprehensible, embodiments accompanied with figures are described in detail below.
An embodiment of the present invention provides an LED fluorescent lamp, referring to fig. 1 to 2, including: the fluorescent lamp comprises a fluorescent tube 1, a lamp panel 2 arranged in the fluorescent tube 1 and two lamp holders 3 respectively arranged at two ends of the fluorescent tube 1. The lamp tube 1 may be a plastic lamp tube or a glass lamp tube, and the present embodiment uses a glass lamp tube with a reinforced portion to avoid the problems of the conventional glass lamp tube, such as easy breakage, electric shock due to electric leakage, and easy aging of the plastic lamp tube.
The lamp tube strengthening method can be a chemical method or a physical method for carrying out secondary processing strengthening on glass, the basic principle of the chemical method is to change the composition of the surface of the glass to improve the strength of the glass, other alkali metal ions are used for exchanging with Na ions or K ions on the surface layer of the glass, an ion exchange layer is formed on the surface, after the glass is cooled to the normal temperature, the inner layer of the glass is pulled, and the outer layer of the glass is pressed, so that the purpose of increasing the strength is achieved, and the lamp tube strengthening method comprises but not limited to a high-temperature type ion exchange method, a low-temperature type ion exchange method, a dealkalization method, a surface crystallization method, a sodium silicate strengthening method.
1. High temperature type ion exchange method
In a temperature region between the softening point and the transition point of the glass, Na is contained2O or K2Glass-impregnated lithium melting of OIn the salt, Na ions in the glass or Li ions in the molten salt with small radius are exchanged, and then the glass is cooled to room temperature, and because the surface layer containing the Li ions and the inner layer containing the Na ions or the K ions have different expansion coefficients, the surface generates residual pressure to strengthen the glass, and simultaneously; glass with Al content2O3、TiO2When the components are mixed, crystals having an extremely low expansion coefficient are generated by ion exchange, and a large pressure is generated on the surface of the glass after cooling, so that a glass having a strength as high as 700MPa can be obtained.
2. Low temperature type ion exchange method
A low-temperature ion exchange method for making K ions enter a surface layer by ion exchange between Na ions and monovalent cations (such as K ions) having a larger ion radius than alkali ions (such as Na ions) in the surface layer in a temperature region lower than the strain point of glass. For example Na2O+CaO+SiO2The system glass can be immersed in a molten salt of more than four hundred degrees for more than ten hours. The low-temperature ion exchange method can easily obtain high strength, and has the characteristics of simple treatment method, no damage to the transparency of the glass surface, no deformation and the like.
3. Dealkalization method
The alkali removal method comprises treating a glass with a Pt catalyst in a high-temperature atmosphere containing sulfurous acid gas and water to cause Na + ions to permeate from the surface layer of the glass and react with sulfurous acid, thereby forming a SiO-rich surface layer2As a result, the surface layer becomes a low-expansion glass, and a compressive stress is generated during cooling
4. Surface crystallization method
The surface crystallization method is different from the high-temperature type ion exchange, but it is a method of forming microcrystals with a low expansion coefficient on the surface layer by heat treatment alone to strengthen the surface layer.
5. Sodium silicate strengthening process
The sodium silicate strengthening method is to treat an aqueous solution of sodium silicate (water glass) at 100 ℃ or higher under several atmospheres to obtain high-strength glass whose surface layer is not easily scratched.
The physical means of strengthening the glass may include, but is not limited to, the use of coatings or the modification of the structure of the article. The coating determines the type and state of the coating according to the substrate needing to be sprayed, can be a ceramic tile reinforced coating, an acrylic coating or a glass coating and the like, and can be coated in a liquid state or a gas state during coating. The structure of the article is changed, for example, a structural reinforcing design is made at the position which is easy to break. The above methods, whether chemical or physical, are not limited to single implementation, and may be mixed in physical or chemical ways to be combined in any combination.
In the embodiment, the structure-enhanced design is used for illustration, the lamp tube 1 includes a main body 102 and end portions 101 respectively located at two ends of the main body 102, and the lamp cap 3 is sleeved outside the end portions 101. Wherein at least one end 101 has an outer diameter smaller than the outer diameter of the body 102. In this embodiment, the outer diameters of both end portions 101 are set smaller than the outer diameter of the main body 102. Specifically, the two ends of the lamp tube 1 are processed by the reinforced parts, the end part 101 forms a reinforced part structure, and the lamp cap 3 is sleeved on the reinforced end part 101, so that the difference between the outer diameter of the lamp cap 3 and the outer diameter of the lamp tube body 102 becomes small, and even is completely flat, that is, the outer diameter of the lamp cap 3 is equal to the outer diameter of the lamp tube body 102. The advantage that sets up like this lies in, and in the transportation, the packing bearing thing can not only contact lamp holder 3, and it can contact lamp holder 3 and fluorescent tube 1 simultaneously for whole LED fluorescent lamp atress is even, and can not make lamp holder 3 become only stress point, avoids lamp holder 3 and fluorescent tube tip 101 position of being connected because the atress concentrates and takes place to break, improves the quality of product, and has pleasing to the eye effect concurrently.
In this embodiment, the outer diameter of the base 3 is substantially equal to the outer diameter of the body 102 with a tolerance of within plus or minus 0.2mm (millimeters) and not exceeding plus or minus 1mm at most.
In order to achieve the purpose that the outer diameter of the lamp cap 3 is basically equal to that of the main body 102, the difference between the outer diameters of the strengthened end part 101 and the main body 102 can be 1 mm-10 mm according to the thicknesses of different lamp caps 3; or more preferably, the difference between the outer diameters of the reinforced end portion 101 and the main body 102 may be widened to 2mm to 7 mm.
In this embodiment, referring to fig. 3, the end portion 101 and the main body 102 of the lamp tube 1 smoothly transition to form a transition portion 103, and the transition portion 103 is an arc surface, i.e. the cross section of the transition portion 103 along the axial direction is an arc line.
The length of the transition part 103 is 1 mm-4 mm, and if the length is less than 1mm, the strength of the transition part is insufficient; if it is larger than 4mm, the length of the body 102 is reduced, the light emitting surface is reduced, and the length of the base 3 is required to be increased correspondingly to be fitted to the body 102, resulting in an increase in the material of the base 3. In other embodiments, the transition portion 103 may not be curved.
Taking the standard lamp of T8 as an example, the outer diameter of the reinforced end part 101 is in the range of 20.9mm to 23mm, and if it is less than 20.9mm, the inner diameter of the end part 101 is too small, so that the power supply part cannot be inserted into the lamp 1. The outer diameter of the main body 102 is 25 mm-28 mm, if the outer diameter is less than 25mm, the two ends of the main body are inconvenient to be processed by strengthening parts under the existing process conditions, and if the outer diameter is more than 28mm, the main body does not meet the industrial standard.
Continuing to refer to fig. 2, be equipped with a plurality of light sources 202 on lamp plate 2, be equipped with power 5 in the lamp holder 3, pass through lamp plate 2 electrical connectivity between light source 202 and the power 5.
Wherein, the power supply 5 can be a single body (i.e. all power supply components are integrated in one component), and is arranged in the lamp head 3 at one end of the lamp tube 1; alternatively, the power supply 5 may be divided into two parts, called dual bodies (i.e. all power supply components are arranged in two parts), and the two parts are arranged in the lamp bases 3 at both ends of the lamp tube. If only one end of the lamp tube 1 is treated as the strengthening part, the power supply is preferably selected as a single body and is arranged in the lamp holder 3 corresponding to the strengthened end part 101.
The power supply can be formed in multiple ways regardless of a single body or a double body, for example, the power supply can be a module after encapsulation molding, specifically, a high-thermal-conductivity silica gel (the thermal conductivity coefficient is more than or equal to 0.7 w/m.k) is used, and the power supply component is encapsulated and molded through a mold to obtain the power supply. Or, the power supply can be formed without pouring sealant, and the exposed power supply assembly is directly placed in the lamp holder, or the exposed power supply assembly is wrapped by a traditional heat-shrinkable tube and then placed in the lamp holder 3.
Generally, referring to fig. 2 in combination with fig. 4-6, the power supply 5 has a male plug 501 at one end and a metal pin 502 at the other end, the lamp panel 2 has a female plug 201 at an end, and the lamp cap 3 has a hollow conductive pin 301 for connecting to an external power supply. The male plug 501 of the power supply 5 is inserted into the female plug 201 of the lamp panel 2, and the metal pin 502 is inserted into the hollow conductive pin 301 of the lamp holder 3. At this time, the male plug 501 and the female plug 201 are equivalent to an adapter and used for electrically connecting the power supply 5 and the lamp panel 2. After the metal pin 502 is inserted into the hollow conductive pin 301, the hollow conductive pin 301 is impacted by an external punching tool, so that the hollow conductive pin 301 is slightly deformed, the metal pin 502 on the power supply 5 is fixed, and electrical connection is realized.
When the lamp is powered on, the current passes through the hollow conductive pin 301, the metal pin 502, the male plug 501 and the female plug 201 in sequence to reach the lamp panel 2, and reaches the light source 202 through the lamp panel 2. In other embodiments, the connection mode of the male plug 501 and the female plug 201 may not be adopted, but a traditional wire routing mode may be used instead, that is, a traditional metal wire is adopted, one end of the metal wire is electrically connected with the power supply, and the other end of the metal wire is electrically connected with the lamp panel 2, but the wire routing mode may have a fracture problem in the transportation process, and the quality is slightly poor.
In order to facilitate the connection and fixation of the lamp cap 3 and the lamp tube 1, the present embodiment is modified with respect to the lamp cap 3.
Referring to fig. 4-5 in combination with fig. 7-9, when the lamp cap 3 is sleeved outside the lamp tube 1, the lamp cap 3 is sleeved outside the end portion 101 and extends to the transition portion 103 to partially overlap with the transition portion 103.
The lamp cap 3 further includes an insulating tube 302 and a heat conducting portion 303 fixed on an outer peripheral surface of the insulating tube 302, in addition to the hollow conductive pin 301, wherein the hollow conductive pin 301 is disposed on the insulating tube 302. One end of the heat conducting portion 303 extends out of the end of the insulating tube 302 facing the lamp tube, and the extending portion (the portion extending out of the insulating tube) of the heat conducting portion 303 and the lamp tube 1 are bonded by the hot melt adhesive 6. In this embodiment, the lamp cap 3 extends to the transition portion 103 through the heat conducting portion 303, and the end of the insulating tube 302 facing the lamp tube 1 does not extend to the transition portion 103, i.e. there is a gap between the end of the insulating tube 302 facing the lamp tube and the transition portion 103. In the present embodiment, the insulating tube 302 is not necessarily a good electrical conductor in a general state, and is not limited to plastic, ceramic, or the like.
The hot melt adhesive 6 (comprising a material commonly known as solder paste powder) preferably comprises the following components: phenolic resin 2127#, shellac, rosin, calcite powder, zinc oxide, ethanol, and the like. The hot melt adhesive 6 can change the physical state of the hot melt adhesive to greatly expand under the condition of high-temperature heating, so that the curing effect is achieved, and the viscosity of the material per se is increased, so that the lamp holder 3 can be in close contact with the lamp tube 1, and the LED fluorescent lamp can be conveniently and automatically produced. In the present embodiment, the hot melt adhesive 6 will expand and flow after being heated at a high temperature, and then will solidify after being cooled. The hot melt adhesive 6 of the invention can not cause reliability reduction due to high temperature environment formed by heating of heating components such as power supply components, etc., can prevent the bonding performance of the lamp tube 1 and the lamp cap 3 from being reduced in the use process of the LED fluorescent lamp, and can improve long-term reliability.
Specifically, an accommodating space is formed between the inner peripheral surface of the protruding portion of the heat conducting portion 303 and the outer peripheral surface of the lamp tube 1, and the hot melt adhesive 6 is filled in the accommodating space (the position indicated by the broken line B in fig. 7). In other words, the location where the hot melt adhesive 6 is filled passes through a first virtual plane (a plane as drawn by the dotted line B in fig. 7) perpendicular to the axial direction of the lamp tube 1: in the radially inward direction, at the position of the first virtual plane, the heat conduction portion 303, the hot melt adhesive 6, and the outer peripheral surface of the lamp tube 1 are arranged in this order. The hot melt adhesive 6 may be coated to a thickness of 0.2mm to 0.5mm, and the hot melt adhesive 6 may be cured after being expanded, thereby contacting the lamp tube 1 and fixing the lamp cap 3 to the lamp tube 1. And because the peripheral surfaces of the end part 101 and the main body 102 have a height difference, the hot melt adhesive can be prevented from overflowing to the main body 102 of the lamp tube, the subsequent manual wiping process is omitted, and the yield of the LED fluorescent lamp is improved.
During processing, heat is conducted to the heat conducting part 303 through external heating equipment, then conducted to the hot melt adhesive 6, and solidified after the hot melt adhesive 6 expands, so that the lamp holder 3 is fixedly bonded on the lamp tube 1.
In this embodiment, as shown in fig. 7, the insulating tube 302 includes a first tube 302a and a second tube 302b connected in an axial direction, an outer diameter of the second tube 302b is smaller than an outer diameter of the first tube 302a, and a difference between the outer diameters of the two tubes ranges from 0.15mm to 0.3 mm. The heat conducting part 303 is arranged on the outer peripheral surface of the second tube 302b, and the outer surface of the heat conducting part 303 is flush with the outer peripheral surface of the first tube 302a, so that the outer surface of the lamp holder 3 is flat and smooth, and the stress of the whole LED fluorescent lamp in the packaging and transportation processes is uniform. The ratio of the length of the heat conducting part 303 in the axial direction of the lamp holder to the axial length of the insulating tube 302 is 1: 2.5-1: 5, heat conduction portion length: the length of the insulating tube is 1: 2.5-1: 5.
in this embodiment, in order to ensure the bonding firmness, the second tube 302b is at least partially sleeved outside the lamp tube 1, and the accommodating space further includes a space between the inner surface of the second tube 302b and the outer surface of the end portion 101 of the lamp tube. The hot melt adhesive 6 is partially filled between the second tube 302b and the lamp vessel 1, which are overlapped with each other (at the position indicated by the broken line a in fig. 7), i.e., a portion of the hot melt adhesive 6 is located between the inner surface of the second tube 302b and the outer surface of the end portion 101. In other words, the position where the hot melt adhesive 6 is filled in the accommodating space passes through a second virtual plane (a plane drawn by a dotted line a in fig. 7) perpendicular to the axial direction of the lamp tube: in the radially inward direction, at the position of the second virtual plane, the heat conduction portion 303, the second tube 302b, the hot melt adhesive 6, and the end portion 101 are arranged in this order. It should be noted that, in the present embodiment, the hot melt adhesive 6 does not need to completely fill the accommodating space (e.g., the accommodating space may also include a space between the heat conducting portion 303 and the second tube 302 b). When the hot melt adhesive 6 is applied between the heat conduction portion 303 and the end portion 101 at the time of manufacture, the amount of the hot melt adhesive can be increased as appropriate so that the hot melt adhesive can flow between the second pipe 302b and the end portion 101 due to expansion during the subsequent heating, and then be adhesively connected after curing.
After the end portion 101 of the lamp tube 1 is inserted into the lamp cap 3, the axial length of the portion, inserted into the lamp cap 3, of the end portion 101 of the lamp tube 1 accounts for one third to two thirds of the axial length of the heat conducting portion 303, which is beneficial to: on one hand, the hollow conductive needle 301 and the heat conducting part 303 are ensured to have enough creepage distance, and the hollow conductive needle and the heat conducting part are not easy to be short-circuited when being electrified, so that people are electric shock and danger is caused; on the other hand, due to the insulating effect of the insulating tube 302, the creepage distance between the hollow conductive needle 301 and the heat conducting part 303 is increased, and the test which causes danger due to electric shock when high voltage passes is easier to pass.
Further, with respect to the hot melt adhesive 6 on the inner surface of the second pipe 302b, the second pipe 302b is interposed between the hot melt adhesive 6 and the heat conductive portion 303, and therefore the effect of heat conduction from the heat conductive portion 303 to the hot melt adhesive 6 is impaired. Therefore, referring to fig. 5, in the present embodiment, a plurality of notches 302c are disposed at an end of the second tube 302b facing the lamp tube 1 (i.e., an end away from the first tube 302 a), so as to increase a contact area between the heat conducting portion 303 and the hot melt adhesive 6, thereby facilitating heat to be rapidly conducted from the heat conducting portion 303 to the hot melt adhesive 6, and accelerating a curing process of the hot melt adhesive 6. Meanwhile, when the user touches the heat conduction part 303, the lamp tube 1 is not damaged to cause electric shock due to the insulation effect of the hot melt adhesive 6 between the heat conduction part 303 and the lamp tube 1.
The heat conducting portion 303 may be made of various materials that easily conduct heat, such as a metal sheet in this embodiment, and has a good appearance, such as an aluminum alloy. The heat conducting portion 303 is tubular (or ring-shaped) and is sleeved outside the second tube 302 b. The insulating tube 302 may be made of various insulating materials, but it is preferable that the insulating tube 302 is made of a plastic tube, so as to prevent heat from being conducted to the power supply components inside the lamp head 3 and affecting the performance of the power supply components.
In other embodiments, the heat conducting portion 303 may also be composed of a plurality of metal sheets arranged at intervals or not along the circumference of the second tube 302 b.
In other embodiments, the lamp head may be provided in other forms, such as:
referring to fig. 8-9, the lamp cap 3 includes a magnetic conductive material (or a magnetic conductive member) besides the insulating tube 302, such as the magnetic conductive metal member 9, and does not include a heat conducting portion. The magnetic conductive metal member 9 is fixedly arranged on the inner circumferential surface of the insulating tube 302, and at least part of the magnetic conductive metal member is positioned between the inner circumferential surface of the insulating tube 302 and the end part of the lamp tube and has an overlapping part with the lamp tube 1 along the radial direction.
In this embodiment, the entire magnetic conductive metal member 9 is located in the insulating tube 302, and the hot melt adhesive 6 is coated on the inner surface of the magnetic conductive metal member 9 (the surface of the magnetic conductive metal member 9 facing the lamp tube 1) and is adhered to the outer circumferential surface of the lamp tube 1. Wherein, in order to increase the bonding area and improve the bonding stability, the hot melt adhesive 6 covers the whole inner surface of the magnetic metal piece 9.
During manufacturing, the insulating tube 302 is inserted into an induction coil 11, so that the induction coil 11 and the magnetic conductive metal member 9 are opposite to each other along the radial direction of the insulating tube 302. Add man-hour, with induction coil 11 circular telegram, form the electromagnetic field after 11 circular telegrams of induction coil to the electromagnetic field is converted into the electric current after touchhing magnetic conduction metalwork 9, makes magnetic conduction metalwork 9 generate heat, uses the electromagnetic induction technique promptly to make magnetic conduction metalwork 9 generate heat, and heat conduction to hot melt adhesive 6, and hot melt adhesive 6 absorbs the heat after the inflation and flow, and the cooling makes hot melt adhesive 6 solidification afterwards, in order to realize being fixed in the purpose of fluorescent tube 1 with lamp holder 3. The induction coil 11 is coaxial with the insulating tube 302 as much as possible, so that the energy transfer is uniform. In this embodiment, the deviation between the induction coil 11 and the central axis of the insulating tube 302 is not more than 0.05 mm. After the bonding is completed, the lamp tube 1 is pulled away from the induction coil 11. In this embodiment, the hot melt adhesive 6 expands and flows after absorbing heat, and then is solidified after cooling, but the selection of the components of the hot melt adhesive is not limited thereto, and the components solidified after absorbing heat can also be selected. Or, in other embodiments, the magnetic metal part 9 is not required to be additionally disposed on the lamp cap 3, and only the predetermined proportion of the powder made of the high magnetic conductivity material is directly doped in the hot melt adhesive 6, for example: iron, nickel, iron-nickel mixture etc. processing, add man-hour, with induction coil 11 circular telegram, form the electromagnetic field after induction coil 11 circular telegram, convert the electric current after electromagnetic field touchs hot melt adhesive 6 for hot melt adhesive 6 generates heat, and hot melt adhesive 6 absorbs the heat back inflation and flow, and the solidification of cooling afterwards to the realization is fixed in the purpose of fluorescent tube 1 with lamp holder 3.
In order to better support the magnetic metal member 9, the inner diameter of the portion 302d of the inner circumferential surface of the insulating tube 302 for supporting the magnetic metal member 9 is larger than the inner diameter of the remaining portion 302e, and a step is formed, and one axial end of the magnetic metal member 9 abuts against the step, so that the inner surface of the entire lamp holder is flush after the magnetic metal member 9 is disposed. The magnetic conductive metal fitting 9 may have various shapes, for example, a sheet shape or a tubular shape arranged in the circumferential direction, and here, the magnetic conductive metal fitting 9 is provided in a tubular shape coaxial with the insulating tube 302.
In other embodiments, the portion of the inner circumferential surface of the insulating tube 302 for supporting the magnetic conductive metal piece 9 may also be in the form of: referring to fig. 10 and 11, the insulating tube 302 has a supporting portion 313 protruding toward the inside of the insulating tube 302 on the inner circumferential surface thereof, and a protrusion 310 protruding radially inward is further disposed on the inner circumferential surface of the insulating tube 302, the protrusion 310 is located on the side of the supporting portion 313 facing the lamp body, that is, the protrusion 310 is located between the outer circumferential surface of the magnetic metal 9 and the inner circumferential surface of the insulating tube 302 for spacing the magnetic metal 9 from the inner circumferential surface of the insulating tube 302, so that a gap is formed between the outer circumferential surface of the magnetic metal 9 and the inner circumferential surface of the insulating tube 302 to reduce the contact area between the magnetic metal 9 and the inner circumferential surface of the insulating tube 302.
The radial thickness of the convex portion 310 is smaller than that of the support portion 313. As shown in fig. 11, the convex portion 310 of the present embodiment is axially connected to the support portion 313, and the magnetic conductive metal member 9 axially abuts against the upper edge of the support portion 313 (i.e., the end surface of the support portion on the side facing the convex portion) and circumferentially abuts against the radially inner side of the convex portion 310. That is, at least a part of the convex portion 310 is located between the magnetic conductive metal member 9 and the inner peripheral surface of the insulating tube 302. The protrusions 310 may be in the shape of a ring extending along the circumferential direction of the insulating tube 302, or a plurality of protrusions arranged at intervals along the circumferential direction around the inner circumferential surface of the insulating tube 302, in other words, the protrusions may be arranged at equal intervals or at unequal intervals along the circumferential direction, as long as the contact area between the outer surface of the magnetic metal piece 9 and the inner circumferential surface of the insulating tube 302 is reduced, and the function of holding the hot melt adhesive 6 is achieved.
The thickness of the support part 313 protruding inward from the inner peripheral surface of the insulating tube 302 is 1mm to 2mm, the thickness of the convex part 310 is smaller than the thickness of the support part 313, and the thickness of the convex part 310 is 0.2mm to 1 mm.
In other embodiments, the lamp cap 3 may be made of all metal, and an insulator needs to be added below the hollow conductive pin to resist high voltage.
In another embodiment, referring to fig. 12, where fig. 12 is a view of the magnetic conductive metal piece 9 along the radial direction, the surface of the magnetic conductive metal piece 9 facing the insulating tube has at least one hole structure 901, and the shape of the hole structure 901 is circular, but not limited to circular, and may be, for example, oval, square, star, etc., as long as the contact area between the magnetic conductive metal piece 9 and the inner circumferential surface of the insulating tube 302 can be reduced, but the function of thermosetting, i.e., hot melt adhesive 6 can be achieved. Preferably, the area of the void structure 901 accounts for 10% -50% of the area of the magnetic metal piece 9. The arrangement of the void structures 901 may be circumferentially arranged at equal intervals or arranged at unequal intervals.
In another embodiment, referring to fig. 13, the surface of the magnetic metal member 9 facing the insulating tube has an indentation structure 903, where fig. 13 is a view of the magnetic metal member 9 along the radial direction, and the indentation structure 903 may be a structure protruding from the inner surface of the magnetic metal member 9 to the outer surface, but may also be a structure protruding from the outer surface of the magnetic metal member 9 to the inner surface, in order to form a protrusion or a depression on the outer surface of the magnetic metal member 9, so as to reduce the contact area between the outer surface of the magnetic metal member 9 and the inner circumferential surface of the insulating tube 302. It should be noted, however, that the magnetically conductive metal piece 9 and the lamp tube should be ensured to be stably bonded to each other, so as to achieve the function of thermally curing the hot melt adhesive 6.
In this embodiment, referring to fig. 14, the magnetic conductive metal member 9 is a circular ring. In other embodiments, referring to fig. 15, the magnetically permeable metal member 9 is a non-circular ring, such as but not limited to an elliptical ring, and when the lamp tube 1 and the lamp cap 3 are elliptical, the minor axis of the elliptical ring is slightly larger than the outer diameter of the end of the lamp tube, so as to reduce the contact area between the outer surface of the magnetically permeable metal member 9 and the inner circumferential surface of the insulating tube 302, but achieve the function of thermally curing the hot melt adhesive 6. In other words, since the insulating tube 302 has the support portion 313 on the inner peripheral surface thereof and the non-circular magnetic metal fitting 9 is provided on the support portion, the contact area between the magnetic metal fitting 9 and the inner peripheral surface of the insulating tube 302 can be reduced, and the function of solidifying the hot melt adhesive 6 can be achieved.
With continued reference to fig. 2, the LED fluorescent lamp of the present embodiment further includes an adhesive 4, a lamp panel insulating paste 7, and a light source paste 8. The lamp panel 2 is adhered to the inner circumferential surface of the lamp tube 1 by an adhesive 4. The adhesive 4 may be a silicone adhesive, which is not limited in form, and may be several segments as shown in the figure, or a segment in the form of a long strip.
The lamp panel insulating glue 7 is coated on the surface of the lamp panel 2 facing the light source 202, so that the lamp panel 2 is not exposed, and the lamp panel 2 is isolated from the outside. When gluing, a through hole 701 corresponding to the light source 202 is reserved, and the light source 202 is arranged in the through hole 701. The lamp panel insulating glue 7 comprises vinyl polysiloxane, hydrogen polysiloxane and aluminum oxide. The thickness range of the lamp panel insulating glue 7 is 100-140 microns. If it is less than 100 μm, it does not function as a sufficient insulation, and if it is more than 140 μm, it causes a waste of materials.
The light source glue 8 is applied to the surface of the light source 202. The light source glue 8 is transparent to ensure light transmittance. The shape of the light source glue 8 may be granular, strip-like or sheet-like after being applied to the surface of the light source 202. The parameters of the light source glue 8 include refractive index, thickness, and the like. The allowable range of the refractive index of the light source glue 8 is 1.22-1.6, and if the refractive index of the light source glue 8 is the root of the refractive index of the shell of the light source 202, or the refractive index of the light source glue 8 is plus or minus 15% of the root of the refractive index of the shell of the light source 202, the light transmittance is good. The light source housing herein refers to a housing that houses an LED die (or chip). In the embodiment, the refractive index range of the light source glue 8 is 1.225-1.253. The allowable thickness range of the light source glue 8 is 1.1 mm-1.3 mm, if the allowable thickness range is less than 1.1mm, the light source 202 can not be covered, the effect is not good, and if the allowable thickness range is more than 1.3mm, the light transmittance can be reduced, and meanwhile, the material cost can be increased.
During assembly, the light source glue 8 is coated on the surface of the light source 202; then coating lamp panel insulating glue 7 on one side surface of the lamp panel 2; then the light source 202 is fixed on the lamp panel 2; then, the surface of one side of the lamp panel 2 opposite to the light source 202 is adhered and fixed on the inner circumferential surface of the lamp tube 1 through an adhesive 4; finally, the lamp cap 3 is fixed to the end of the lamp tube 1, and the light source 202 is electrically connected to the power supply 5. Or as shown in fig. 16, a flexible circuit board climbs over the transition portion 103 and is welded to the power supply (i.e., passes through the transition portion 103 and is welded to the power supply 5), or the lamp panel 2 is electrically connected to the power supply 5 by a conventional wire bonding method, and finally the lamp cap 3 is connected to the transition portion 103 at the reinforcement portion by the method shown in fig. 7 (using the structure shown in fig. 4-5) or fig. 8 (using the structure shown in fig. 9), so as to form a complete LED fluorescent lamp.
In this embodiment, the lamp panel 2 is fixed on the inner circumferential surface of the lamp tube 1 by the adhesive 4, so that the light source 202 is attached to the inner circumferential surface of the lamp tube 1, thereby increasing the light emitting angle of the whole LED fluorescent lamp, and enlarging the visible angle, so that the visible angle can generally exceed 330 degrees. Through scribbling lamp plate insulating cement 7 at lamp plate 2, scribble insulating light source glue 8 on light source 202, realize the insulation treatment to whole lamp plate 2, like this, even fluorescent tube 1 breaks, can not take place the electric shock accident yet, improves the security.
Further, the lamp panel 2 may be any one of a strip-shaped aluminum substrate, an FR4 board, or a flexible circuit board. Since the lamp tube 1 of the present embodiment is a glass lamp tube, if the lamp panel 2 is made of a rigid strip-shaped aluminum substrate or FR4 board, when the lamp tube is broken, for example, two pieces are cut, the whole lamp tube can still be kept in a straight tube state, and at this time, a user may think that the LED fluorescent lamp can be used and installed by himself, which is likely to cause an electric shock accident. Because the flexible circuit board has the characteristics of strong flexibility and easy bending, and the problem that the flexibility and the bending property of the rigid strip-shaped aluminum substrate and the FR4 board are insufficient is solved, the lamp panel 2 of the embodiment adopts the flexible circuit board, so that after the lamp tube 1 is broken, the broken lamp tube 1 cannot be supported to keep a straight tube state after the lamp tube 1 is broken, so as to inform a user that the LED fluorescent lamp cannot be used, and avoid the occurrence of electric shock accidents. Therefore, when the flexible circuit board is adopted, the contact problem caused by the broken glass tube can be relieved to a certain extent. The following embodiments are described with the flexible circuit board as the lamp panel 2 of the present invention.
The flexible circuit board and the output end of the power supply 5 may be connected by wire bonding, or connected by the male plug 501 and the female plug 201, or connected by welding. In accordance with the fixing manner of the lamp panel 2, one side surface of the flexible circuit board is fixed to the inner circumferential surface of the lamp tube 1 by an adhesive 4, and both ends of the flexible circuit board may be fixed or not fixed to the inner circumferential surface of the lamp tube 1.
If both ends of the flexible circuit board are not fixed to the inner circumferential surface of the lamp tube 1, if the flexible circuit board is connected by the conductive wire, the conductive wire may be broken because the both ends are free and easily sway during the subsequent handling process. Therefore, the connection mode of the flexible circuit board and the power supply is preferably selected as welding, and specifically, referring to fig. 16, the flexible circuit board can directly climb over the transition portion 103 of the reinforcing portion structure and then be welded on the output end of the power supply 5, so that the use of a wire is omitted, and the stability of the product quality is improved. At this time, the flexible circuit board does not need to be provided with the female plug 201, and the output end of the power supply 5 does not need to be provided with the male plug 501, and the specific implementation method may be to leave the pad a at the output end of the power supply 5, and leave tin on the pad a, so that the thickness of tin on the pad is increased, and the soldering is convenient.
The bonding pad b of the flexible circuit board has two unconnected bonding pads, which are electrically connected to the positive and negative electrodes of the light source 202. In other embodiments, in order to achieve compatibility and expandability for subsequent use, the number of the pads b may have more than two pads, for example, 3, 4 or more than 4, when the number of the pads is 3, the 3 rd pad may be used as a ground, and when the number of the pads is 4, the 4 th pad may be used as a signal input terminal. Correspondingly, the bonding pads a also have the same number of bonding pads as the bonding pads b. When the number of the bonding pads is more than 3, the bonding pads can be arranged in a row in parallel or in two rows, and the bonding pads are arranged at proper positions according to the size of the accommodating area in practical use as long as the bonding pads are not electrically connected with each other to cause short circuit. In other embodiments, if part of the circuits are fabricated on the flexible circuit board, the bonding pad b may have only a single bonding pad, and the number of the bonding pads is smaller, which saves the flow in the process; the larger the number of the welding pads, the more the electric connection fixation between the flexible circuit board and the power output end is enhanced.
In other embodiments, the pad b may have a through hole inside the pad, and when the pad a is soldered to the pad b of the flexible circuit board, the soldering tin may pass through the through hole, and when the tin passes through the through hole, the soldering tin may be accumulated around the through hole, and when the soldering tin is cooled, a solder ball having a diameter larger than that of the through hole may be formed.
In other embodiments, the through hole of the pad is at the edge, i.e. the pad has a notch, the soldering tin electrically connects and fixes the pad a and the pad b through the notch, the tin will be accumulated around the through hole, when cooled, a solder ball with a diameter larger than the through hole will be formed, and the solder ball structure will form a structural electrical connection fixation enhancement.
The structure of the present embodiment can be achieved whether the through hole of the bonding pad is formed first or is punched directly by the bonding head during the bonding process. The surface of the pressure welding head, which is contacted with the soldering tin, can be a plane or a surface with concave parts and convex parts, the convex parts can be in a strip shape or a grid shape, the convex parts do not completely cover the through holes, the soldering tin can penetrate out of the through holes, and when the soldering tin penetrates out of the through holes and is accumulated around the through holes, the concave parts can provide accommodating positions for the soldering balls. In other embodiments, the flexible circuit board has a positioning hole, and the bonding pads of the bonding pads a and the bonding pads b can be accurately positioned through the positioning hole during soldering.
In the above embodiment, most of the flexible circuit board is fixed on the inner circumferential surface of the lamp tube 1, only two ends of the flexible circuit board are not fixed on the inner circumferential surface of the lamp tube 1, the flexible circuit board not fixed on the inner circumferential surface of the lamp tube 1 forms a free portion, when assembling, one end of the free portion welded with the power supply drives the free portion to contract towards the inside of the lamp tube, the free portion of the flexible circuit board deforms due to contraction, the flexible circuit board with the perforated pad is used, one side of the flexible circuit board with the light source and the pad a welded with the power supply face towards the same side, when the free portion of the flexible circuit board deforms due to contraction, one end of the flexible circuit board welded with the power supply has a lateral pulling force towards the power supply, compared with a welding method that one side of the flexible circuit board with the light source and the pad a welded with the power supply face towards different sides, the other end of the flexible circuit board welded with the power supply has a downward pulling force towards the power, the flexible circuit board with the perforated welding pad is used for forming structural electric connection and has better fixing and reinforcing effects.
If both ends of the flexible circuit board are fixed to the inner circumferential surface of the lamp tube 1, it is preferable to provide the female socket 201 on the flexible circuit board, and then insert the male socket 501 of the power supply 5 into the female socket 201 to electrically connect.
As shown in fig. 17, the flexible circuit board includes a conductive layer 2a, and the light source 202 is disposed on the conductive layer 2a and electrically connected to the power source through the conductive layer 2 a. Referring to fig. 17, in the embodiment, the flexible circuit board may further include a dielectric layer 2b stacked on the conductive layer 2a, the conductive layer 2a is disposed on a surface opposite to the dielectric layer 2b for disposing the light source 202, and the dielectric layer 2b is adhered to the inner circumferential surface of the lamp tube 1 by the adhesive 4 on the surface opposite to the conductive layer 2 a. The conductive layer 2a may be a metal layer or a power layer with a conductive wire (e.g., a copper wire) disposed thereon.
In other embodiments, the outer surfaces of the conductive layer 2a and the dielectric layer 2b may be covered with a circuit protection layer, which may be an ink material having functions of solder resistance and reflection increase. Alternatively, the flexible circuit board may have a structure that only includes a conductive layer 2a, and then a circuit protection layer made of the above-mentioned ink material is coated on the surface of the conductive layer 2 a. Either a one-layer conductive layer 2a structure or a two-layer structure (a conductive layer 2a and a dielectric layer 2b) can be used with the circuit protection layer. The circuit protection layer may be disposed on one side of the flexible circuit board, for example, only one side having the light source 202. It should be noted that the flexible circuit board has a conductive layer structure 2a or a two-layer structure (a conductive layer 2a and a dielectric layer 2b), which is significantly more flexible and pliable than a common three-layer flexible substrate (a dielectric layer sandwiched between two conductive layers), and therefore, the flexible circuit board can be matched with a lamp tube 1 having a special shape (e.g., a non-straight lamp) to attach the flexible circuit board to the wall of the lamp tube 1. In addition, the flexible circuit board is closely attached to the tube wall of the lamp tube, and the number of layers of the flexible circuit board is smaller, the better the heat dissipation effect is, the lower the material cost is, the more environment-friendly is, and the flexibility effect is also improved.
Certainly, the flexible circuit board of the present invention is not limited to one or two layers, in other embodiments, the flexible circuit board includes a plurality of conductive layers 2a and a plurality of dielectric layers 2b, the dielectric layers 2b and the conductive layers 2a are sequentially stacked in an interlaced manner and are disposed on a side of the conductive layer 2a opposite to the light source 202, and the light source 202 is disposed on the uppermost layer of the plurality of conductive layers 2a and is electrically connected to the power source through the uppermost layer of the conductive layer 2 a.
Further, the inner circumferential surface or the outer circumferential surface of the lamp tube 1 is covered with an adhesive film (not shown) for isolating the outside and the inside of the lamp tube 1 after the lamp tube 1 is broken. The present embodiment applies an adhesive film on the inner circumferential surface of the lamp tube 1.
The adhesive film comprises the components of vinyl-terminated silicone oil, hydrogen-containing silicone oil, xylene and calcium carbonate. Wherein the chemical formula of the vinyl-terminated silicone oil is as follows: (C)2H8OSi)n·C2H3The chemical formula of the hydrogen-containing silicone oil is as follows: c3H9OSi·(CH4OSi)n·C3H9Si。
The product is polydimethylsiloxane (organic silicon elastomer) with a chemical formula:
the xylene is an auxiliary material, and when the adhesive film is coated on the inner circumferential surface of the lamp tube 1 and cured, the xylene is volatilized, and the xylene mainly has the function of adjusting the viscosity, so that the thickness of the adhesive film is adjusted.
In this example, the thickness of the adhesive film was in the range of 100 μm to 140 μm. If the thickness of the adhesive film is less than 100 μm, the explosion-proof performance is insufficient, the entire lamp tube is cracked when the glass is broken, and if it exceeds 140 μm, the light transmittance is lowered and the material cost is increased. If the requirements for explosion-proof performance and light transmittance are relaxed, the thickness range of the adhesive film can be widened to 10-800 μm.
In this embodiment, because the inside adhesive film that scribbles of fluorescent tube, after the glass fluorescent tube is broken, the adhesive film can be in the same place the piece adhesion to can not form the through-hole that link up the fluorescent tube inside and outside, thereby prevent that the user from contacting the electrified body of 1 inside of fluorescent tube, in order to avoid taking place the electric shock accident, the adhesive film that adopts above-mentioned ratio simultaneously still has diffusion light, non-light tight effect, improves the luminous degree of consistency and the luminousness of whole LED fluorescent lamp.
It should be noted that, since the lamp panel 2 in this embodiment is a flexible circuit board, the adhesive film may not be provided.
In order to further improve the lighting effect of the LED fluorescent lamp, the LED fluorescent lamp is further improved in two aspects, namely, the lamp tube and the light source.
Improvements in or relating to lamps
Referring to fig. 18, the lamp tube 1 of the present embodiment includes a diffusion layer 13 besides the lamp panel 2 (or the flexible circuit board) closely attached to the lamp tube 1, and light generated by the light source 202 passes through the diffusion layer 13 and then passes through the lamp tube 1.
The diffusion layer 13 diffuses the light emitted from the light source 202, so that the diffusion layer 13 can be disposed in various ways, for example, as long as the light can pass through the diffusion layer 13 and then out of the lamp tube 1: the diffusion layer 13 may be coated or covered on the inner circumference of the lamp tube 1, or a diffusion coating (not shown) coated or covered on the surface of the light source 202, or a diffusion film covering (or covering) the light source 202 as an outer cover.
As shown in fig. 18, the diffusion layer 13 is a diffusion film and covers the light source 202 without contacting the light source 202. The diffusion film is generally referred to as an optical diffusion sheet or an optical diffusion plate, and generally includes one or more of PS polystyrene, PMMA polymethylmethacrylate, PET (polyethylene terephthalate), and PC (polycarbonate) in combination with diffusion particles to form a composite material, which can diffuse light when the light passes through the composite material, and can modify the light into a uniform surface light source to achieve an optical diffusion effect, thereby uniformly distributing the brightness of the lamp tube.
When the diffusion layer 13 is a diffusion coating, its composition may include at least one of calcium carbonate and strontium phosphate. When the diffusion coating formed by mixing calcium carbonate or strontium phosphate or the mixture of the calcium carbonate and the strontium phosphate with a proper solution has excellent diffusion and light transmission effects (the organic ratio can reach more than 90 percent). In addition, through the creative labor, it is found that the lamp cap with the strengthened glass part sometimes has quality problems, and a certain proportion of the lamp cap is easy to fall off, and as long as the diffusion coating is also coated on the outer surface of the end part 101 of the lamp tube, the friction force between the lamp cap and the lamp tube is increased between the diffusion coating and the hot melt adhesive 6, so that the friction force between the diffusion coating and the hot melt adhesive 6 is larger than the friction force between the end surface of the end part 101 of the lamp tube and the hot melt adhesive when the diffusion coating is not coated, therefore, the problem that the lamp cap 3 falls off through the friction force between the diffusion coating and the hot melt adhesive 6 can be greatly solved by the lamp cap.
In this example, the diffusion coating was formulated to include strontium calcium carbonate phosphate (e.g., CMS-5000, white powder), a thickener (e.g., DV-961, a milky white liquid), and ceramic activated carbon (e.g., SW-C, a colorless liquid). Wherein, the chemical name of the thickening agent DV-961 is colloidal silicon dioxide modified propylene resin, and the components of the thickening agent DV-961 comprise acrylic resin, silica gel and pure water; the components of the ceramic activated carbon SW-C comprise sodium succinate sulfonate, isopropanol and pure water, wherein the sodium succinate sulfonate has the chemical formula:
specifically, the diffusion coating is prepared by taking strontium calcium carbonate phosphate as a main material, matching with a thickening agent, ceramic activated carbon and deionized water, mixing and coating on the inner peripheral surface of the glass lamp tube, wherein the average coating thickness is 20-30 mu m, and finally the deionized water is volatilized to only leave three substances of the calcium carbonate, the thickening agent and the ceramic activated carbon. The diffusion layer 13 formed using such a material may have a light transmittance of about 90%. In addition, the diffusion layer 13 can play a role of electric isolation besides having the effect of diffusing light, so that when the glass lamp tube is broken, the risk of electric shock of a user is reduced; meanwhile, the diffusion layer 13 can diffuse light emitted from all sides when the light source 202 emits light, so that the light can shine behind the light source 202, namely, be close to one side of the flexible circuit board, thereby avoiding a dark area from being formed in the lamp tube 1 and improving the illumination comfort of the space.
In other embodiments, the diffusion coating may also be prepared by mixing strontium phosphate (or a mixture of calcium carbonate and strontium phosphate) as a main material with a thickener, ceramic activated carbon and deionized water, and coating the mixture on the inner circumferential surface of the glass lamp tube, wherein the coating thickness is the same as that in the present embodiment.
Further, with reference to fig. 18, the inner circumferential surface of the lamp tube 1 is further provided with a reflective film 12, and the reflective film 12 is disposed around the lamp panel 2 with the light source 202 and occupies a part of the inner circumferential surface of the lamp tube 1 along the circumferential direction. As shown in fig. 18, the reflective film 12 extends along the circumferential direction of the lamp tube on both sides of the lamp panel 2, and the lamp panel 2 is substantially located at the middle position of the reflective film 12 along the circumferential direction. The provision of the reflective film 12 has two effects, on one hand, when the lamp 1 is viewed from the side (X direction in the figure), the light source 202 is not directly seen due to the blocking of the reflective film 12, thereby reducing the visual discomfort caused by the granular feeling; on the other hand, the light emitted by the light source 202 is reflected by the reflective film 12, so that the divergence angle of the lamp tube can be controlled, and the light is more irradiated towards the direction not coated with the reflective film, so that the LED fluorescent lamp obtains the same irradiation effect with lower power, and the energy saving performance is improved.
Specifically, the reflective film 12 is attached to the inner peripheral surface of the lamp tube 1, and an opening 12a corresponding to the lamp panel 2 is formed in the reflective film 12, and the size of the opening 12a should be the same as that of the lamp panel 2 or slightly larger than that of the lamp panel 2, so as to accommodate the lamp panel 2 with the light source 202. During assembly, the lamp panel 2 (or the flexible circuit board) with the light source 202 is disposed on the inner circumferential surface of the lamp tube 1, and the reflective film 12 is attached to the inner circumferential surface of the lamp tube, wherein the openings 12a of the reflective film 12 correspond to the lamp panel 2 one-to-one, so as to expose the lamp panel 2 outside the reflective film 12.
In this embodiment, the reflectivity of the reflective film 12 is at least greater than 85%, and the reflective effect is better, and generally more than 90%, preferably more than 95%, so as to obtain a more ideal reflective effect. The length of the reflective film 12 extending along the circumferential direction of the lamp tube 1 occupies 30% to 50% of the entire circumference of the lamp tube 1, that is, the ratio of the circumferential length of the reflective film 12 to the circumferential length of the inner circumferential surface of the lamp tube 1 along the circumferential direction of the lamp tube 1 is in the range of 0.3 to 0.5. Note that, in the present invention, only the lamp panel 2 is disposed at the middle position of the reflective film 12 in the circumferential direction, that is, the reflective films 12 on both sides of the lamp panel 2 have substantially the same area, as shown in fig. 18. The reflecting film may be PET with thickness of 140-350 microns, 150-220 microns, and has high effect.
In other embodiments, the reflective film 12 may be disposed in other forms, for example, along the circumferential direction of the lamp tube 1, the reflective film 12 may be disposed on one side or two sides of the lamp panel 2, that is, the reflective film 12 contacts one side or two sides of the lamp panel 2, and the ratio of the circumferential single side occupying the circumference of the lamp tube 1 is the same as that of the present embodiment, as shown in fig. 19, which shows a structure that the reflective film 12 contacts one side of the lamp panel 2. Or, as shown in fig. 20 and 21, the reflective film 12 may not be provided with an opening, the reflective film 12 is directly attached to the inner circumferential surface of the lamp 1 during assembly, and then the lamp panel 2 with the light source 202 is fixed to the reflective film 12, where the reflective film 12 may also extend along the circumferential direction of the lamp on both sides of the lamp panel 2, as shown in fig. 20, or extend along the circumferential direction of the lamp on only one side of the lamp panel 2, as shown in fig. 21.
In other embodiments, only the reflective film 12 may be provided without providing the diffusion layer 13, as shown in fig. 20, 21, and 22.
In other embodiments, the width of the flexible circuit board may be widened, and since the surface of the circuit board includes the circuit protection layer made of the ink material, and the ink material has the function of reflecting light, the circuit board itself may have the function as the reflective film 12 at the widened portion. Preferably, the ratio between the length of the flexible circuit board extending along the circumferential direction of the lamp tube 2 and the circumference of the inner circumferential surface of the lamp tube 2 ranges from 0.3 to 0.5. As described in the foregoing embodiments, the flexible circuit board may be covered with a circuit protection layer, the circuit protection layer may be an ink material, and has a function of increasing reflection, the widened flexible circuit board extends in the circumferential direction with the light source as a starting point, and the light of the light source is concentrated by the widened portion.
In the embodiments of fig. 12-14 described above, the glass tube may be coated with a diffusion coating on its entire inner circumference or partially coated with a diffusion coating (where the reflective film 12 is present is not present), but in either case, the diffusion coating is preferably applied to the outer surface of the end portion of the lamp vessel 1 to make the adhesion between the base 3 and the lamp vessel 1 stronger.
(II) improvements to light sources
Referring to fig. 23, the light source 202 may be further modified to include a bracket 202b having a recess 202a, and an LED die 18 disposed in the recess 202 a. The groove 202a is filled with phosphor powder, and the phosphor powder covers the LED die 18 to perform a light color conversion function. In one lamp tube 1, the light source 202 has a plurality of light sources 202, the plurality of light sources 202 are arranged in one or more rows, and each row of light sources 202 is arranged along the axial direction (Y direction) of the lamp tube 1. The recess 202a in each bracket 202b may be one or more.
The support 202b of the at least one light source 202 has a first sidewall 15 arranged along the length direction of the lamp tube and a second sidewall 16 arranged along the width direction of the lamp tube, wherein the first sidewall 15 is lower than the second sidewall 16. Alternatively, the support 202b of the at least one light source 202 has a second sidewall 16 extending along the length of the tube and a first sidewall 15 extending along the width of the tube, the first sidewall 15 being lower than the second sidewall 16. The first side wall and the second side wall herein refer to side walls that surround the groove 202 a.
In this embodiment, each bracket 202b has one recess 202a, and correspondingly, each bracket 202b has two first side walls 15 and two second side walls 16.
The two first sidewalls 15 are arranged along the length direction (Y direction) of the lamp tube 1, and the two second sidewalls 16 are arranged along the width direction (X direction) of the lamp tube 1. The first sidewall 15 extends in the width direction (X direction) of the lamp 1, the second sidewall 16 extends in the length direction (Y direction) of the lamp 1, and a groove 202a is defined by the first sidewall 15 and the second sidewall 16. In other embodiments, other arrangements or extensions of the side walls of the holder in which one or more light sources are located are allowed in a row of light sources.
When a user views the tube from the side of the tube, for example in the X direction, the second sidewall 16 may block the user's line of sight from directly seeing the light source 202 to reduce discomfort from particles. The first sidewall 15 "extends along the width direction of the lamp tube 1", and it is only required that the extending trend is substantially the same as the width direction of the lamp tube 1, and is not strictly parallel to the width direction of the lamp tube 1, for example, the first sidewall 15 may have a slight angle difference with the width direction of the lamp tube 1, or the first sidewall 15 may also have various shapes such as a zigzag shape, an arc shape, a wave shape, and the like; the second sidewall 16 "extends along the length direction of the lamp tube 1", and is not required to be strictly parallel to the length direction of the lamp tube 1 as long as the extending trend is substantially the same as the length direction of the lamp tube 1, for example, the second sidewall 16 may have a slight angle difference with the length direction of the lamp tube 1, or the second sidewall 16 may have various shapes such as a zigzag shape, an arc shape, and a wave shape.
In this embodiment, the first sidewall 15 is lower than the second sidewall 16, so that the light can easily spread out over the support 202b, and through the design of the spacing with proper density, the uncomfortable feeling of particles can not be generated in the Y direction, and in other embodiments, if the first sidewall is not lower than the second sidewall, the particles are more tightly arranged between each row of light sources 202, so as to reduce the particle feeling and improve the efficiency.
Wherein the inner surface 15a of the first side wall 15 is sloped such that light rays are more easily emitted through the slope than if the inner surface 15a were disposed perpendicular to the bottom wall. The slope may include a plane or an arc, and in this embodiment, a plane is used, and the slope of the plane is about 30 degrees to 60 degrees. That is, the included angle between the plane and the bottom wall of the groove 202a ranges from 120 degrees to 150 degrees.
In other embodiments, the slope of the flat surface may be between about 15 degrees and about 75 degrees, i.e., the flat surface may be angled between about 105 degrees and about 165 degrees from the bottom wall of the recess 202 a. Alternatively, the ramp may be a combination of a flat surface and a curved surface.
In other embodiments, if the light sources 202 are arranged in multiple rows and arranged along the axial direction (Y direction) of the lamp tube 1, only the support 202b of the outermost two rows of light sources 202 (i.e. two rows of light sources 202 adjacent to the wall of the lamp tube) has two first side walls 15 arranged along the length direction (Y direction) of the lamp tube 1 and two second side walls 16 arranged along the width direction (X direction) of the lamp tube 1, that is, the support 202b of the outermost two rows of light sources 202 has the first side walls 15 extending along the width direction (X direction) of the lamp tube 1 and the second side walls 16 extending along the length direction (Y direction) of the lamp tube 1. the arrangement direction of the support 202b of the other rows of light sources 202 between the two rows of light sources 202 is not limited, for example, the support 202b of the middle row (third row) of light sources 202, and each support 202b can have two first side walls 15 arranged along the length direction (Y direction) of the lamp tube 1 and two second side walls arranged along the width direction (X direction) of the lamp The sidewall 16, or each of the legs 202b, may have two first sidewalls 15 arranged along the width direction (X direction) of the lamp 1 and two second sidewalls 16 arranged along the length direction (Y direction) of the lamp 1, or may be staggered, etc., as long as the second sidewalls 16 of the legs 202b in the outermost two columns of light sources 202 may block the user's view from directly seeing the light sources 202 when the user views the lamp from the side of the lamp, e.g., along the X direction, thereby reducing the discomfort of the particles. As with the present embodiment, other arrangements or extensions of the side walls of the holder with one or more light sources therein are permitted for the two outermost columns of light sources.
It can be seen that, when the plurality of light sources 202 are arranged in a row along the length direction of the lamp tube, in the support 202b of the plurality of light sources 202, all the second side walls 16 located on the same side along the width direction of the lamp tube are on the same straight line, that is, the second side walls 16 on the same side form a wall-like structure, so as to block the user from directly seeing the light sources 202.
When the plurality of light sources 202 are arranged in a plurality of rows along the length direction of the lamp tube, the plurality of rows of light sources 202 are distributed along the width direction of the lamp tube, and for two rows of light sources located at the outermost side along the width direction of the lamp tube, all the second sidewalls 16 located at the same side along the width direction of the lamp tube in the brackets 202b of the plurality of light sources 202 in each row are on the same straight line. This is because: when a user views the lamp tube from the side in the width direction, the purpose of reducing the uncomfortable feeling of particles can be achieved as long as the second side wall 16 of the bracket 202b in the two outermost rows of the light sources 202 can block the user's sight line from directly seeing the light sources 202. The arrangement and extension of the side walls of the middle row or rows of light sources 202 are not required, and may be the same as the outermost two rows of light sources 202, or may adopt other arrangements.
